6.1.4 Acceptable oil for lubricating bearings
Acceptable lubricants
Use a high quality turbine oil with rust and oxidation inhibitors.
Oil ISO viscosity recommendations can vary based on Operating speed, Ambient temperature and Ro-
tating element loading.
The following recommendations for oil viscosity will suit a variety of XHD product applications. Due to
variables during operation such as operational speed, SG of liquid being pumped, ambient temperature,
bearing setting preload and other factors, the tapered roller bearings used on XHD products can routine-
ly operate at temperatures as high as 99°C | 210°F. As a general rule, oil temperature above 102°C |
215°F should be avoided, except during initial break in of new equipment. In no case should bearings
ever operated above 121°C | 250°F for any period of time.
In the event of excessive bearing temperatures as defined above, monitor bearing and oil temperature to
confirm then investigate the root cause. Bearing preload, and improper assembly are possible causes.
Confirm bearing preload (End cover shimming) for correct assembly per the procedure outlined in the as-
sembly section of this IOM. Based on Ambient temperature, operating speed, and application variables
(SG / temp) a different oil viscosity may be selected for the application.
